I need compression shorts for soccer, are these shorts flexible enough ?

I believe these would be. Very comfortable and flexible. I use my pair for martial arts which includes intense sparring.

I've never played soccer. I do a lot of jiu jitsu and they work great. I will recommend not putting them into a dryer, as the heat will break them down. They air dry very quickly.

They are very flexible and very comfortable to wear. They provide a good grip too.

pretty flexible yes. They are relatively elastic however a 1" dia. might be pushing it. That will take some work. I think you may be able to do it but I am not for certain.

I can't say if it will solve your problem (although I've heard compression sleeves work for Shin Splints), but I doubt it will be too much compression (assuming you get the sizing right). I thought the compression was on the light side.

I find them easy for me to take on and off. They just slip on and off effortlessly for me but they are tight fitting but comfortable I think. I have hip problems so that is why I use the compression shorts.

Yes, these are compression sleeves and should be snug. You should not have to adjust them after you have put them on or keep having to pull them up.

It's more compression in that it's snug fitting (to show off that Under Armour body!) It is not compression like compression shorts or cycling shorts. I wouldn't be surprised if UA offers a line of apparel like what you're looking for, but the Heatgear line probably won't do what you're wanting.

They are soft, but I would describe them as flexible. They are made of silicone so they are very durable.

No; they are not that flexible. They're made of a hard plastic that has a little "give", but only a very little.

I think so, if you have a medium build. I don't think the elastic is too strong to prevent that. They're lightweight, so they shouldn't bind too much either. All the best to you!

I'd say sort of. They have a little flex but keep their shape pretty well. I used them on a two week bike tour through some rough dirt roads, rain, wind, etc and they held their shape pretty well.

Definitely! They fit pretty snugly, so just be careful not to stretch too much or they will tear (but for the price and amount you get, this isn't the worst thing).

I would think so but I'm just guessing as my kids are older. The shorts are very stretchy.

I guess it depends on your comfort. I was in between and ordered one of each. The smalls are good while I'm playing soccer, but the mediums are really comfy to wear through the day without feeling overly constricted.

I don't fid them to be all that flexible. I wear them at night to keep my wrists from curling while I sleep. Hope this helps.

My son and several teammates and opposing players use them for basketball and like them. As for older players I can only surmise the compression helps stabilize the knee. I wear compression sleeves myself on my knees every night and these seem of similar quality. Hope that helps

They aren't compression shorts, just spandex. They don't help hold anything in place really.
